Young, SVP Global Product and Innovation.

Apple Pay is easy to set up and users wil continue to receive all of the rewards and bene?ts offered by credit and debit cards. In stores, Apple Pay works with iPhone (News - Alert) SE, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and Apple Watch. Online shopping in apps accepting Apple Pay is as simple as the touch of a finger with Touch ID, so there's no need to manually fill out lengthy account forms or repeatedly type in shipping and billing information.
